Great sports-filled weekend behind us...

The Smiths came to Eugene to visit and we were able to catch up and have some fun. We went to the track meet at Hayward, checked out the football scrimmage as well as cheered on the marathon runners in our front yard. Sunday morning made me realize that it does not matter how well or fast you run; all that matters is that you sign up and finish. We sat in chairs on our front lawn with a pot of coffee and cheered on everyone that participated in the marathon. It was quite inspirational. I did well last week and actually went on a couple jogs, Nicole said she will help in teaching me how best to conserve my energy so that I do not tire as quickly as I do. Thinking I will sign up for a 5k or Half Marathon soon......anyone want to join?
